Re: don't want x as default startup
Just remove the sym link in the default run level directory in /etc
i.e. if the default runlevel is 2, then remove the sym link to S89xdm in
the /etc/rc2.d directory. If there's a better way I'm sure others will
tell you. You'll find the default run level from /etc/inittab.
Hope this helps...
